At a time when banking risk continues to hold its own, Andrea Pignataro's project on Cedacri, the IT outsourcing platform that the London-based Italian entrepreneur bought together with Fsi, is relaunching the group's Radiocor agency this morning. Sun.

According to reports from Il Sole 24 Ore , the goal is to create a reality capable of bringing the network of client banks to compete with the big names in the sector (a network that has 2,400 branches or shops, the third largest after those of Intesa and Iccrea group and in front of UniCredit).

According to rumors gathered by the Confindustria newspaper, the project was developed before the 1.5 billion acquisition and was shared with the Supervisory Authority and discussed with the 40-50 banks still customers of Cedacri and partly former shareholders.

Maybe. In recent weeks, for example, rumors (so far categorically denied) have spread on the market about interest in BFF ”.
